Empty city, it's calling your nameWheel of fortune, sucking you into the gameIt's a fatal attraction, that pulls you like a moth to the flame

Empty city, sitting waiting in the hillsBabylonian, promising all kinds of thrillsHere they all know what they wantAnd they chase it with a passion that kills

Empty city, what's easy come don't let it goCount your money, every day it seems to growBuild a wall around your dream, get a gun, don't let nobody closeAre you happy with the life that you chose?

She came in from the desert and the dustAnd now she's trying to stay afloat on a crazy sea of lustIt's hard to love a city when that city has no heartIt'll rape your mind and sell your bodyIt'll tear your soul apart, tear it apart

'Cos when you scratch through the surfaceYou won't find a damn thing underneathAnd everybody's moving on, that's why I believeIt's an empty city, it's an empty city

Empty city, it's calling your nameWheel of fortune, sucking you into the gameIt's a fatal attraction that pulls you like a moth to the flame'Til you've forgotten your name, where the streets are lined with painBut I can't stay away
